It was cold and windy today, so I stayed inside and spent most of the day watching movies and studying Japanese. I learned some new kanji which will be useful. <\/p>\n
I’m off to bed soon – this week should be a relatively easy week. I’m going to start with a new lesson on Tuesday, talking about Valentine’s Day. I’m hoping to break the giggling record for one class. <\/p>\n
Last night the master of the yakitori gave me an ad for a pizza place called “Pizza California”. There is a special going on, and they deliver. I told him a long time ago about the tribulations surrounding the ordering of a pizza for me. He offered to order for me – I can just take the menu over to his place and he’ll call it in. Cool – I may make Thursday or Friday a big pizza and beer bash at my place.<\/p>\n
The last couple of weekends have been pretty boring – but that’s been by design. I’m trying to save money this month so that I have plenty of money to send home, and January and February are pretty slow months in Japan as far as cultural events go.
